several 10-substituted anthralins were readily prepared. their oxidation with 2,3-dichloro-5,6-dicyano-1,4-benzoquinone gave the corresponding novel heteroatomic systems. all derivatives were fully characterized by ir, mass and 1hnmr spectroscopy.

Transient precursor states are often experimentally observed for molecules adsorbing on surfaces. However, such precursor states are typically rather short-lived, quickly yielding to more stable adsorption configurations. Here we employ first-principles calculations to systematically explore the interaction mechanism for benzene derivatives on metal surfaces, enabling us to selectively tune the...

An< accurate, stable and very fast corner finder (for feature based vision) has been developed', based on a novel definition of corners, using:no image derivatives. This note describes the algorithm and the results obtained from its use.

A model for computing image ow in image sequences containing a very wide range of instantaneous ows is proposed. This model integrates the spatio-temporal image derivatives from multiple temporal scales to provide both reliable and accurate instantaneous ow estimates. The integration employs robust regression and automatic scale weighting in a generalized brightness constancy framework. In addi...

Psoriasis is chronic dermatosis with the prevalence of 1-2% in the general population (1,2). Although it can not be completely cured, there are numerous therapeutic procedures that can lead the patient into remission and allow for it to last a longer period. The basic aim of the treatment is to decrease the activity of the illness and to reduce the spreading of changes to the level that does no...

The CoI2(PPh3)2/Zn system effectively catalyzes the [2 + 2 + 2] ene-diyne cycloaddition of 1,6-heptadiynes with allenes in a highly regio- and chemoselective fashion to yield substituted benzene derivatives in good to excellent yields.

A new strategy for Rh(I)-catalyzed [2+2+2] cycloadditions of 1,6-diynes with potassium (Z)-(2-bromovinyl)trifluoroborate as the third two-atom unit has been realized, which provides a facile entry to polysubstituented benzene derivatives.

Hexa-substituted benzene derivatives show larger two-photon cross sections than the corresponding dipolar counterparts and the largest values of delta(max) = 2000 GM and delta(max)/MW = 2.25 GM g(-1) have been obtained with a compound having C[triple bond]C and C=C bonds in the conjugation bridge.

We have successfully developed a new synthetic approach to modulate the electrostatic potentials of metallocavitands and thus their selective recognition towards substituted benzene derivatives via integrating two metal cations of different electronegativity into a self-assembled system.
